ICYMI: Biden Says He Wants to Pay Brazil $20 Billion to Stop Cutting Down Trees [Watch]
Does anybody else agree with him on this?
Even for Joe Biden, a man known for making outlandish statements with no basis in reality, this proposal is quite something. Imagine sending $20 billion to a foreign country to have them not lift a finger.
This is how nutty the left has become. From USA Today:
WASHINGTON – A voter asked former Vice President Joe Biden a blunt question during an event in Nevada: “What the hell is going on with your campaign?”

Good grief. @TheDemocrats including Biden do not have a sane relationship with money

And so it was that the Dept of Trees and Shrubs was born. Followed closely by the Division of Sweat Reclamation and the 30 second rule of food dropped on the floor was extended by the FDA to 2 minutes.
Thanks Joe! We couldnt have fkd ourselves any better had you not come along.

OMG free education & free healthcare to illegal & free money to other countries for trees. Does it ever stop with these people? Let me know when one of the candidates offer something that doesn't cost American citizens more in taxes for other countries & their citizens

Perhaps we need to have that same "money doesn't grow on trees" conversation with the Democrats, that we have with our kids.

Great idea, Joe. Give money to countries who will line up to take the money to fatten their Swiss bank accounts while kids in OUR inner cities may not have a tree in their neighborhood. Aid for citizens first.

So you’re goal is to commit to spending taxpayer money on literally anything without so much as a payback period, to try and get voters from Bernie? Just stop, Joe. You blew it.

I’d like to see @Biden pass the hat for this idea! How many rallies would it take to collect $20 billion from his supporters?
— Bill Craver (@Craver_Crave) February 18, 2020
Tell you what Joe – I won't cut down the trees on my property if you give me just $1 million dollars. What a great deal! You're such a genius. Thanks for telling us all your brilliant ideas.

What??? Crazy, even for Joe.

He’s lost his damn mind.

This only sounds like a good idea if you’re an idiot who spends their entire life inside a city and doesn’t know trees are growing 33% faster than we can cut them down. This is what happens when you think Ferngully and the Lorax are documentaries.
— JustLooking (@HowAboutNoJack) February 18, 2020
Is he going to withhold the $20 billion if they don’t stop cutting? That’s bribery!
— Tabula Rasa (@tabularasa202) February 18, 2020
That’s ridiculous!

The American people want to work. They want to earn their paychecks to feel as though they are contributing.
So, when far-left candidates propose eliminating jobs – for pretty much any reason – it doesn’t sit well, nor should it.
Biden, apparently, doesn’t understand this. The fact that the economy is thriving means next to nothing to him and it’s pretty sad.
To talk of eliminating hundreds of thousands of jobs because the AOC’s of the nation think they know what’s best is downright pathetic.
From Daily Wire:
Democrat presidential candidate Joe Biden signaled support for eliminating hundreds of thousands of blue collar jobs on Thursday night in order to transition to a “greener economy.”
QUESTION: "Would you be willing to sacrifice…hundreds of thousands of blue collar workers in that transitioning to that greener economy?"
BIDEN: "The answers yes." pic.twitter.com/23Qh1wyEa6

Apple Backs Down, Will Allow Parler Back on App Store
The news is seen as a major boost for the First Amendment.
Free speech is a fickle thing, and precious too. If we’re not careful, it can be stripped away but those who hide behind the claim that a “private” company can limit your personal freedoms. Twitter, Facebook, and other social media platforms are almost always the culprits here, bending the algorithmic reach of those with whom they disagree. Enter Parler: A free speech app where only the bare legal minimum of content would be moderated. The platform became incredibly popular with an astonishing swiftness, but soon faced trouble from companies who had previously aligned themselves with Facebook and Twitter’s more controlling stance. Apple, who had previously booted Parler from its App Store, has now relented to the Constitution. Apple has approved Parler’s return to the iOS app store following improvements the social media company made to better detect and moderate hate speech and incitement, according to a letter the iPhone maker sent to Congress on Monday. The decision clears the way for Parler, an app popular with conservatives including some members of the far right, to be downloaded once again on Apple devices. The letter — addressed to Sen. Mike Lee and Rep. Ken Buck and obtained by CNN — explained that since the app was removed from Apple’s platform in January for violations of its policies, Parler “has proposed updates to its app and the app’s content moderation practices.” On April 14, Apple’s app review team told Parler that its proposed changes were sufficient, the letter continued. Now, all Parler needs to do is to flip the switch. The news is seen as a major boost for the First Amendment.
For many North Carolinians, neighborhood living brings with it the peace of mind that the most invasive animals you might have to deal with are squirrels who are trying to rest in your attic, or raccoons hoping to fatten up from your trash can. The Tar Heel state has some bears, sure, but they’re not often the pestering or dangerous type like you might see in the Pacific Northwest or parts of California. But one man this week got up close and personal with a seriously frightening creature this week, after it lunged at his wife from underneath their car. A disturbing video captures the moment a rabid bobcat attacks a North Carolina woman—and the moment her husband grabs it off her and throws it through the air. Kristi and Happy Wade of Burgaw were walking to their SUV to take their cat to the vet the morning of April 9 when the growling animal ran across the street and attacked, WIS-TVreports. After throwing it several feet, Happy Wade eventually shot it after it ran into the couple’s garage and then continued to charge, ABC 11 reports. A neighbor who had been jogging by at the time stopped to help and called 911. Video of the incident is simply unbelievable. https://twitter.com/nojumper/status/1383145940807163904?s=20 The bobcat was injured by Wade and later euthanized by local law enforcement. An autopsy revealed that the animal was indeed rabid, and the family has been undergoing treatment for their numerous bite wounds.
